Israel began using the American THAAD missile defense system.

American THAAD missile defense systems have been deployed in Israel to protect against a possible Iranian ballistic missile attack. More than 20 US military transport aircraft delivered THAAD system components, trucks with launchers, interceptor missiles, radars and other equipment.

In addition, hundreds of American military personnel were brought to Israel to jointly maintain anti-missile systems in cooperation with the Israeli Air Force.

Recently, the IRGC commander said that Iran intends to respond harshly to attacks on its targets, and American THAAD missile defense batteries will not help Tel Aviv in the event of a conflict.
